Photographs of Maggio 'Pia de' Tolomei' performed by compagnia Pieve di Compito at Gragnanella (LU) 26/7/1992. The Pieve di Compito company, which is based in a small town near Lucca, the provincial capital, has quite a different performance style from the Garfagnino companies that usually perform at Gragnanella. This performance was part of the series sponsored each year by the Centro Tradizioni Popolari della Provincia di Lucca. The Maggio Pia de' Tolomei is one of the most famous maggio stories - see Barwick, L. (2005).
